There are others dinged up.  Can't afford any more key injuries in a stupid Preseason Game 4.  Good game to bench the starters and as of now that includes Mixon and maybe Ross.  Ross just got over being injured so no play or just a few plays.  Let the hacks and scrubs play trying to make team. Second half maybe players they already have on the cut list.

It will still be worth watching the back-up QB's and the kicker battle.  Regular Season starts in 7 days and Bengals play in 10 days.  No key players should be on the field pre 4.   We are going into Baltimore game short handed as it is.

I think Ross needs to play if he's going to have any kind of significant role this year. I know we don't want him getting re-injured, but he also needs to get up to NFL speed as soon as possible.
